Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson bought out an entire Long Beach theater on behalf of AFutureSuperHero And Friends for the premiere of ‘Black Adam’. Now, veterans, ill and special needs children, elderly, and former houseless will get to attend the premiere in style.

Yuri Williams is the founder of non-profit AFutureSuperHero And Friends, an organization that provides support for the disadvantaged by donating emergency services, supportive services, helping the houseless get back on their feet, and much more. Williams is also well-known for visiting sick children in hospitals and at their homes dressed as their favorite superhero. His gift is making sure people never feel alone, no matter what they’re facing.

Williams was recently featured on Good Morning America for his selfless deeds and the amazing impact he’s made since he dedicated his life to helping others. On live television, GMA surprised him with a visit from Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson. “I get lucky to play Black Adam,” said Johnson, “but you are a real superhero…I’m so proud of you, brother, and the work that you do.”

Johnson added, “The best part about influence is to make people feel good.”

Johnson gifted Williams with Black Adam gear, including a costume that Williams will be wearing to the film’s premiere at Regal Edwards Long Beach. Johnson also invited Williams and his daughter to the official premiere that night, a premiere that “The Rock” says was the biggest of his career. During the segment, Johnson also offered to rent out the biggest theater in Long Beach so that Williams could invite guests to enjoy the premiere of ‘Black Adam’ together.

An emotional Williams graciously accepted, and now, he’s invited 350+ guests to enjoy ‘Black Adam’ together at Regal Edwards Long Beach. Many of these special guests will be military veterans, children who are battling conditions or are special needs, elderly, and former houseless. “The Rock” personally paid for 211 tickets to make sure the theater was packed to the max for the premiere.

AFutureSuperHero And Friends accepts donations and travels across the United States to make dreams come true. Learn more at https://afuturesuperhero.com/

More than 180 figure skaters from the Philippines, Mongolia, Thailand, and the United States, participated in the event, which was held from October 16 to 18 at SM Mall of Asia in Pasay City. Wearing various costumes, from Disney princesses to K-pop idols, the young skaters showcased their skating skills and fun routines. For the first, the competition also joins the Ice Skating Institute Asia (ISIAsia) Championship Series. According to the competition, the event was not just a “thrilling Halloween spectacle” but it “champions SM Active's mission to make sports accessible, nurture young talent, and inspire more Filipinos to embrace an active lifestyle”. “We feel that it is very important for its contribution to grassroots development. We see that the sport is continually growing. In this event we get to discover who are the ones that we would bring into the national developmental [program].
